What is 312500 percent of 5375 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 5375 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 5375 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5375=100%.
4. We know, that x is 312500% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=312500%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5375=100%
2) x=312500%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
5375/x=100%/312500%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 312500% of 5375

5375/x=100/312500
(5375/x)*x=(100/312500)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5375=0.00032*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.00032) to get x
5375/0.00032=x
16796875=x
x=16796875

now we have:
312500% of 5375=16796875
